Turris was never in breach of his contract, though. By mandate of the CBA he was prohibited from attending training camp without a contract. I think that action on Drouin's part has likely coloured his situation very differently in the eyes of NHL personnel, who see a player that has willfully withheld his playing services in violation of his agreement with the club, in an effort to force the hand of the team. That's a whole new level.
